Harvest Moon

Hello.  Welcome.  I got this lovely stamp from Unity the other day and had an idea that she should be looking out a window.  Then I saw CASology's theme this week was Moon and a card was born.



I stamped Unity Dream of Being (NBUS) on patterned paper, coloured with watercolour pencils and fussy cut.  For my window I used Poppystamps Diamond Lattice and after a bit of fiddling and a few attempts managed to reduce the cut to the size I needed.  I made a moon night scene using distress inks and stamped and embossed a Crafty Individuals tree stamp.  I always think the moon in the autumn looks bigger and more striking.
